Re: [TruthTalk] The Sabbath Breaker of Numbers

[Slade Henson]

Hello all.   I'm glad to see we have some people in the TruthTalk Email Service who are not motivated by human dogma. The concept of grace plus nothing minus nothing is a great place to start. Grace plus nothing minus nothing in terms of salvation is great. It's wonderful. It's marvelous. I cannot make this point any CLEARER.   I would like to introduce you guys to the world's foremost Judiaizer, (or so he would be called here in TruthTalk): the apostle JAMES THE JUST:   Therefore, putting aside all filthiness and all that remains of wickedness, in humility receive the word implanted, which is able to save your souls. But prove yourselves doers of the word, and not merely hearers who delude themselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks at his natural face in a mirror; for once he has looked at himself and gone away, he has immediately forgotten what kind of person he was. But one who looks intently at the perfect law, the law of liberty, and abides by it, not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer, this man will be blessed in what he does. (James 1:21-25) What use is it, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but he has no works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food, and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and be filled," and yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that? Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself. But someone may well say, "You have faith and I have works; show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works." You believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and shudder. But are you willing to recognize, you foolish fellow, that faith without works is useless? Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up Isaac his son on the altar? You see that faith was working with his works, and as a result of the works, faith was perfected; and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "And Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned to him as righteousness," and he was called the friend of God. You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone. In the same way, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead. Let not many of you become teachers, my brethren, knowing that as such we will incur a stricter judgment. (James 2:14-3:1) Rebellion against the Will of YHVH is a dangerous prospect. I submit my will to YHVH and I submit my members to the instructions he has laid down in the WHOLE BIBLE. He HIMSELF said He does not change, therefore His WILL does not change either. It was His will for the people called out by His NAME to be obedient to His words in the Old Testament, so it is His will for the people called out by His NAME to be obedient  to His words in and after the New Testament. Nothing changed... only dogma. There is NO SUCH THING as the dispensation of grace; YHVH's grace is EVERYWHERE in the Bible.   Those who are so smart and so defiant and so rebellious that they "know in their heart" they can scoff at the WILL OF YHVH and blaspheme, deny the very power who saved their souls. Their faith is DEAD because they have no works. I pity the soul because their faith cannot save them.   Prophesies of the Millennial Kingdom speak of THE Sabbath, The Feasts, SACRIFICE!! Dispensationalism is a dead dogma that preaches a FALSE JESUS. Dispensationalism must ignore the Apostle James, the book of Romans, the words of Jesus, Moses, and the Prophets to survive.   -- slade   ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charles P.
